Well..If you connect ur Woofer with Reverse polarity..this would happen

when the Membrane of woofer was supposed to move Forward..it will move backwards instead..

so if it was to punch sound forward..it will punch sound backward..
i think it wont damage..BUT if u play LOW bass with Loud sound..
Membrane will move backward with a LOT of force and hit the backwall instead of moving forwards..(depends on the design)

dont reverse polarity..theres a reason they marked it +ve and -ve

That's like an over incursion as opposed to an over excursion. If you play louder than the sub is built to do, whatever polarity you put will kill your sub. Sounds like your installer made up some excuse why your sub died once upon a time.
